Adds touchscreen gestures (not trackpad or mouse gestures) to navigate back, forward and reload the page to Firefox.

The gestures provided only require a single finger:

Swipe to the right to navigate back
Swipe to the left to navigate forward
Pull down from the top of the page to reload.

Gestures work at any position in the page, not only at the edges, making it easy to navigate when holding the device with both hands.

If you find situations where it does not work, please report it.

Works great on my Lenovo Yoga 11 Gen 6. Why this isn't built-in to Firefox when the code is so short is beyond me. Hats off to the developer.

Using this on a surface tablet, works perfectly. The animation helps you to not activate the swipe action by accident.

Can use some improvement 1. lock the vertical scrolling when showing forward/backward animation 2. show(or not) animation based on the history 3. Don't trigger when more than one finger detected
